How to create localhost database using mysql?

Viewed 121709

I download mysql installer here:

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/

And then I downloaded MySql WorkBench.

At workbench's connection configuration I put hostname as "127.0.0.1", port "3306", user: "root", password is empty. I click "test connection" and it gives me this error:

"Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (10061)"

What am I missing?
